About the Job

Requirements

  • Experience using Microsoft Word, Excel, Project, Outlook, and PowerPoint.
  • Experience with a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS), such as MP2 or SAP.
  • Prior experience planning and scheduling maintenance work for maintenance down-days and/or mill-wide outages.
  • Experience developing detailed maintenance job plans and coordinating work scope, resources, materials, tools, and safety requirements.
  • Ability to work safely and efficiently independently and as part of a team.
  • Ability to perform work in hot, humid, dusty, and cold conditions and outdoors, and to lift up to 40 pounds, walk, stoop, stand, and repetitively push and/or pull.

Responsibilities

  • Develop accurate, detailed job plans defining the work scope, job steps and sequence, labor, materials, tools, specialty services, permits, and safety requirements.
  • Review work orders in the CMMS to identify those requiring formal planning, retrieve existing plans when available, create plans when needed, and ensure work orders follow the proper workflow before they are ready to schedule.
  • Apply economic and critical thinking to ensure maintenance spending creates long-term value for the product system and mill.
  • Build out work-order packages sufficiently in advance to support a two-week-or-longer schedule, including regular updates to outage calendars and planning for down-days and mill-wide outages.
  • Identify material requirements, enter material requests, maintain accurate bills of materials, and verify that the correct parts are received before scheduled downtime. Order parts only when they are expected to be installed in a timely manner.
  • Support backlog management by prioritizing work based on safety and environmental needs, risk, value, operational requirements, work-order priority, preventive maintenance due dates, planning status, and parts availability.
  • Conduct and actively participate in weekly backlog, planning, and scheduling meetings to align priorities, select ready work, and drive readiness for the next two weeks.
  • Review completed work and preventive maintenance feedback to assess job-plan effectiveness, capture lessons learned, document discoveries, and initiate corrective work when needed.
  • Build effective working relationships with Maintenance and Operations Area Leaders, the Scheduler, Materials Coordinator, Purchasing, Reliability, contractors, and other service providers.

Desired Qualifications

  • Prior experience with knowledge of reliability-centered maintenance principles, including precision maintenance, predictive technologies, asset criticality, failure analysis, materials management, and outage planning.

About the Company

Koch Industries

Private conglomerate in energy and materials

Koch Industries is a large, private, diversified conglomerate that operates in energy, chemical processing, and manufacturing. It started from an innovation that turned heavy crude oil into gasoline and grew through long‑term investments rather than short‑term market moves. The company generates value by refining fuels and producing chemical products, and it operates Georgia-Pacific, a major maker of paper and building products. Its business model relies on reinvesting most earnings back into the company to fund steady, long‑term growth rather than paying out frequent dividends or seeking quick profits. Koch differentiates itself from many competitors by staying privately owned, which reduces pressure from public markets and enables longer‑range planning. The company’s goal is to build scale and durability across its holdings by sustainable, multi‑decade growth rather than rapid, episodic gains.
